    NHS Scotland

    NHS Scotland have been offered a 4% pay rise which I don't begrudge. Free universities up there and free car parking at hospitals.

    We have become the second class citizens of the UK here in England! Where the f uck does our money go?

    Meanwhile the 1% pay rise offered in England won't even cover increased council tax bills ( yet again ) and other rising costs..........

    Disproportionately to the devolved Governments.

    The Scottish Government receives significantly more per capita than England does from central funds.

    If a vote was offered I would vote for an independent England, I’m not some flag waving little Englander but economically it makes huge sense.

    I think we should either be included in the vote for Scotland to leave or we should have our own vote to leave them!

    First thing I’d then pass would be to move to double summertime on the clocks during summer and to summertime in the winter so we didn’t have such dark nights.

    It would be nice to cut the subsidy we are forced to pay them at the moment as well.

    What must this pay rise do for the moral of NHS England who receive a paltry 1%?

    School leavers who want to better their education in getting a good career pay around 20K a year whilst those w ankers get it free!! Who does that do for the moral of talented school leavers who want to follow a chosen career by going to university?

    Don’t you get it Boris!!! Probably not!!

    Why stop there? I hope London gets a vote to annex itself away from England. It would make economic sense for us living here. We pay for the rest of England.

    Everything inside the M25, hypothetically, that would be great, let’s see... England could then charge a huge tariff on London’s imports, including energy, in fact all but that coming in from outside via city airport would then be taxable, London doesn’t really make anything other than as a financial services economy so we wouldn’t be importing anything by return. Happy days, hypothetically of course 😉
